Alice in Wonderland

The forthcoming exhibition by Early Years (EYE Year 1 & 3) and Montessori (Year 3) students, will be held in the James Barry Exhibition Centre May 7th -16th. The students illustrate the magical story of Alice, as they transport us into her fantasy-world, full of strange and wonderous characters and events.
The costumes, props, wall pieces, shadow puppets and dioramas are the combined effort of EYE and Montessori students.

The EYE students' individual Art pieces were created by using 'free and found' materials only; what would generally be termed 'junk'.
The aim of the exhibition is to showcase the students' work, expressed in 2 and 3 dimensional forms, using a variety of techniques. These include printmaking, painting, paper weaving,collage and papier–mache.

The exhibition is the culmination of 3 groups Art-Module work, under the direction of their tutor Evelyn Egan Rainy.
